"Yes, miss."
Qin Wu was a princess of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but she never thought of taking the lives of innocent people.
She knew that her mother was also kind, otherwise she would not have tried her best to protect the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
All she did was for peace in the world and for the people to live and work in peace and contentment.
Not everyone is heartless and ungrateful to those who give sincerely.
They also protected her mother with all their heart.
Therefore, she did not want the emperor to die just like that, letting innocent people lose their lives because of Qin Xiang's conspiracy and their entire family be destroyed and killed tragically.
The Imperial Palace.
The palace maid brought the medicine and handed it to Li Niang.
"Empress Li, the emperor's medicine is ready." Concubine Li nodded and took the medicine.
...
...
"Your Majesty, take the medicine..."
"Hmm." The emperor opened his eyes dazedly and spoke weakly.
Concubine Li fed all the medicine to the emperor and he drank it.
"Puff." Suddenly, the emperor vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Concubine Li was shocked, and then she shouted in fear, "Someone come quickly, call the imperial physician..."
The eunuch who had just left rushed back in terror a short while later. He shouted in shock, "Oh no, oh no, Your Majesty, the Second Prince is rebelling..."
"W-what…" The emperor's face showed shock. How could this be possible!
Wasn’t the second prince imprisoned? Where did he get the troops to rebel?
"Puff." The emperor was so angry that he wanted to get up, but he spat out another mouthful of black blood.
Just by looking at the color of the blood, you can tell that the emperor has been poisoned.
"Your Majesty, you, you have been poisoned. The medicine was poisoned by the Second Prince's men."
"Rebellious, rebellious son..." The emperor's angry voice was so weak, "Go find the commander of the imperial guards quickly, come and protect me..."
"Let him save me..."
Concubine Li took out a pill from her body and said, "Your Majesty, please don't get excited. I have a life-saving pill that Qin Wu gave me. Take it first. I will go find a doctor for you."
Concubine Li immediately stuffed the pill into the emperor's mouth.
The emperor really deserves to die, but he can't die so easily.
Trusting Concubine Li, the emperor swallowed the medicine without hesitation.
The medicine took effect quickly, suppressing the emperor's poison and regaining some strength.
"Help me up."
Concubine Li helped the emperor towards a wall with paintings on it.
The emperor opened the secret compartment and gave the tiger talisman and the token for dispatching the imperial guards to Concubine Li.
"Now I only have you. Take the token and go find Wang Yang. Ask him to mobilize the troops."
"But Your Majesty..."
"If he dares to kill his father directly, he will rebel. The boss still has the military power and will definitely attack back. I have a way to delay..."
Looking at the things in her hand, Concubine Li's eyes flashed with a calculating light. She nodded with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty, you must hold on. I, I will find someone to save you right away."
"Little Li, protect Concubine Li."
"I obey your order."
Little Li just opened the door of the bedroom and was about to take Li Niang out.
The next second, blood splattered and Little Leo fell in a pool of blood.
"Today, no one can escape or get out." The second prince walked in, stepping over Little Li's body, holding a bloody sword in his hand.
The moment Little Li fell, Li Niang hid the token and tiger talisman in her hand.
Her face showed panic, but her eyes were unusually calm. She turned around and ran to the emperor.
But before she could take two steps, she tripped over herself and fell heavily to the ground.
But before she fell to the ground, Zhou Cangheng held her up by the waist and said, "Be careful."
"Second, second prince." Li Niang shouted in panic.
Zhou Cangheng looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes full of tenderness and care, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
The woman he loved deeply could finally return to him.
"Let her go!" The emperor pointed at Zhou Cangheng angrily, "You rebellious son, you dare to rebel, and you won't let anyone leave. I can still spare your life."
Holding Li Niang's waist, Zhou Cangheng pointed his sword at the emperor without any respect, "You old man, you are almost dead, what can you do to me?"
"presumptuous!"
"Humph!" Zhou Cangheng laughed coldly, "Now the entire palace is under my control. Father, if you don't give up your throne, you can only die."
"You!" The emperor raised his hand to slap Zhou Cangheng in the face.
Zhou Cangheng dodged and the emperor stumbled and fell to the ground, looking very embarrassed.
"Father, stop struggling fearlessly. It's time for you to give up your throne."
"Cough, cough, cough..." The emperor was so angry that he spat out blood. "You, you thought you could kill the imperial guards, you thought the imperial master would let you go, you'd better give up, I will leave your body intact."
"Ha, ha ha..." Zhou Cangheng sneered, "Father, you may not know that the Imperial Master is dead!"
"What about the 20,000 guards outside? Can they stop my 50,000 troops?"
"Father, please hand over the imperial seal." Zhou Cangheng stepped forward, bent down and looked at the emperor who was in a disheveled state and spitting blood.
The emperor's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Zhou Cangheng as if he wanted to eat him up.
"Rebellious son, even if you sit on the throne, you killed your father and usurped the throne. Your eldest brother will bring the troops back to kill you."
"Then he has the ability to return to Shangjing." Zhou Cangheng sneered, "By the time he sees me, he will have already gone to hell."
"You, you!" The emperor's heart and voice were rising and falling violently, "I, I shouldn't have just imprisoned you, I should have killed you!"
"Who is it, who is it, who made you dare to rebel!"
"Is it Qin Honghao, this sycophantic minister?"
"Father, no matter who it is, I will take good care of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You, go ahead..." Zhou Cangheng stepped forward and strangled the emperor's neck, trying to kill him completely.
When he made Li Niang his concubine, he wished he could kill him.
After he dies, Li Niang will be his alone, and no one can take her away from him.
The cries of killing outside were deafening, with swords flashing and countless people falling to the ground. The strong smell of blood filled the entire palace.
The patrolling guards had been drugged before, and the remaining guards guarding the palace were unable to stop Qin Sushui and Qin Honghao's soldiers from attacking the imperial city.
By the time the leader of the Imperial Guard, Wang Yang, received the news and brought the rest of the Imperial Guard to rescue the emperor, the palace had already been breached and Zhou Cangheng had already emerged from the confinement room and broke into the emperor's bedroom.
Wang Yang fought his way to the outside of the emperor's bedroom, but was stopped by Qin Sushui.
But Wang Yang's wife and daughter were arrested first. After Qin Sushui's threats, he had no choice but to surrender for the sake of his wife and daughter.
Soon after, Duke Yang and others also led their troops to attack.
Prime Minister Qin led his men to stop Duke Yang and General Yang.
"Duke Yang, your daughter-in-law is still in my hands. You'd better surrender. Otherwise, your daughter-in-law will die."
Prime Minister Qin was protected by several experts. He sneered and negotiated with Duke Yang in a threatening manner.
"There is another child in your daughter-in-law's belly. This may be the last bloodline of your Yang family. You must think it through..."
